It’s important to be safe when working in the lab and field within engineering. Dr Eva Lantsoght, professor in civil engineering, take us through her top tips for being safe in the lab. Find out more and share: https://lnkd.in/eh4HhpFB #engineering #labwork #careeradvice

ASCE is a largest source of knowledge in civil engineering. Everyone feels that an overhaul is needed in civil engineering, but I haven’t seen any thorough treatment on this perspective. Frequently I have seen people blindly talking about digital construction without seeing the essence of construction and the key issues in design and analysis? Perhaps this book may be different? I am certainly impressed with the author’s career path.

Submit your paper for the 4th issue of Civil Engineering Design now! - https://lnkd.in/dw6fEbz Topic: „Digital Solutions for Tunnelling" Issue Lead: Prof. Dr. Matthias Flora (Arbeitsbereich Baumanagement, Baubetrieb und Tunnelbau (iBT) | Universität Innsbruck) We invite submissions that explore digital innovations transforming the tunnelling industry. This includes breakthrough technologies, digital modelling, automation strategies, and data-driven decision making processes that are redefining efficiency, safety, and sustainability in tunnel construction and maintenance. Contributions may range from theoretical research to case studies and practical implementations, all aimed at fostering dialogue and enhancing knowledge among professionals about the evolving landscape of digital technologies in the tunnelling field. Share your expertise and discoveries to illuminate the advancements propelling this field into a new era of construction excellence.

I recently completed a five-session course designed to deepen knowledge and understanding of sustainability in civil engineering, an area critical to future-focused engineering practices. Delivered by industry experts, this course offered valuable insights into topics beyond daily experience and supported my professional growth toward engineering registration. 📅 Course Outline: Week 1: Foundations of Sustainable Engineering Week 2: Green Building Certification, Standards, and Regulations Week 3: Whole Life Carbon in Civil Engineering Week 4: Sustainable Materials and Construction Methods Week 5: Sustainability Case Studies Thankful for the opportunity to gain this comprehensive understanding of sustainable practices, which will complement my existing experience in civil engineering. Looking forward to applying these principles in future projects! #Sustainability #CivilEngineering #ProfessionalDevelopment

The Critical Role of Research in Civil/Structural Engineering Research is the foundation that propels civil/structural engineering forward. It is through research that we identify innovative solutions to modern challenges, ensuring that our infrastructure is not only resilient and efficient but also environmentally sustainable. From analyzing advanced materials that reduce carbon footprints to developing smarter construction techniques, research drives transformative change. Structural engineers, for instance, rely heavily on research to enhance building resilience against natural disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes, safeguarding lives and investments. In addition, research allows us to predict future challenges—such as urbanization, climate change, and resource scarcity—and create proactive solutions. Whether it’s designing energy-efficient buildings or integrating smart technologies into urban infrastructure, research ensures that we remain adaptable and forward-thinking. By prioritizing research in civil and structural engineering, we enable a future where innovation, sustainability, and safety intersect. Let’s recognize its value, advocate for more resources, and collaborate to shape a better-built environment. #CivilEngineering #StructuralEngineering #Research #Innovation #Sustainability #FutureOfEngineering

🔧 "When a Foundation Taught Me About Foundations" 🔧 Once I was on a construction site, excited to see the real-world application of my textbooks. As I watched workers pour the foundation, I realized how much it resembled life: - You can’t rush it. - Every layer matters. - If you don’t get the base right, everything else suffers. It was one of those moments where theory meets reality, and it left me both humbled and inspired. As I continue my journey in civil engineering, I’m curious: What was your first “aha” moment in the field? #LearningOnSite #EngineeringLessons #FoundationsOfGrowth
